amore 2, 3 & 4

I'm already really slacking on this!

#2 Jazz

Best way to convince me of something? Play me a song. Sounds stupid but music is my ultimate weakspot.
I am head over heels in love with old school jazz. Play anything Dean Martin or Ella Fitzgerald and I instantly swoon. There's something so romantic and classic about old jazz, it just takes me to another place entirely. I feel like I should've been born during that time. The clothes, the music---too bad they didn't have air conditioning yet or it'd be a perfect fit! :-)



hear a great jazz song here.

#3 My wedding song

We struggled to agree on a wedding song for what seemed like forever. (Actual time around 3 months) When we finally found one it felt like the perfect song. When I heard it for the first time I was only around 6 but even then I remember thinking I wanted to dance with my husband to it someday. (I remembered this AFTER we decided on it) I still feel like I'm dancing on air whenever I hear it.

#4 Books



*I'm trying to collect all of these. So far I have Pride & Prejudice, Jane Eyre & Great Expectations.

Don't you just love the smell of books? I loooooove books. I love the covers, the feel of the pages, the way they look in a bookcase, everything. I know everyone is moving toward reading books on things like nook but I don't think I'll ever convert. Call me old school but turning the pages give me a thrill.

I'm with you on all three loves! My husband and I are big into swing and old jazz. Sometimes if we haven't listened to Ella for a while and then come back to it, we wonder why we ever listen to anything else?! That wedding song is dreamy. It's been a while since I've heard it and it was fun to listen to again. I also will never get a "Nook" or the like for the same reasons I will always make a written "to do" list and not do it digitally. :)
